This book provides unique insights into the practice of democratic
constitutionalism in one of the world's most legally and
politically significant regions. It combines contributions from
leading Latin American and global scholars to provide 'bottom up'
and 'top down' insights about the lessons to be drawn from the
distinctive constitutional experiences of countries in Latin
America. In doing so, it also draws on a rich array of legal and
interdisciplinary perspectives. Ultimately, it shows both the
promise of democratic constitutions as a vehicle for social,
economic and political change, and the variation in the actual
constitutional experiences of different countries on the ground -
or the limits to constitutions as a locus for broader social
change. This book presents new perspectives on recurrent topics and
debates that enrich comparative constitutional law in other regions
of the world, both in the Global South and the Global North. The
fine-tuned, in-depth approach of the contributors brings rigorous
scholarship to this institutionally diverse and significant region,
illuminating the under-explored relationship between
constitutionalism, politics, ideology and leadership. This unique
and challenging study will prove to be an indispensable tool, not
only for academics interested in Latin America but for comparative
constitutional law scholars across the globe. Contributors include:
C. Bernal, J.l. Colon-Rios, J. Couso, R. Dixon, Z. Elkins, H.A.
Garcia, R. Gargarella, T. Ginsburg, A. Huneeus, D. Landau, J.
Lemaitre, L. Lixinski, G.L. Negretto, R.A. Sanchez-Urribarri, M.
Tushnet, O. Vilhena Vieira
